Arod of some material 0.20 m long elongates 0.20 mm on heating from 21 to 120°c. determine the value of the linear coefficient of thermal expansion [in (degrees c)^-1] for this material.

The value of the linear coefficient of thermal expansion is : α=1.01 *10⁻⁵ (ºC)⁻¹

Explanation:

Li = 0.2m

ΔL = 0.2 mm = 0.0002m

T1 = 21ºC

T2 = 120ºC

ΔT =99ºC

α =ΔL/(Li*ΔT)

α =0.0002m /(0.2m * 99ºC)

α = 1.01 *10⁻⁵   (ºC)⁻¹

the moon affects the earth gravitation ally, causing certain motions of that body and also producing tides in its ocean and atmosphere. the tidal wave in our atmosphere is, however, far too minute to be an effective cause in any known meteorological phenomenon.
